Hi, I'm running dhcpcd 3.2.3 as included in the 32 bit openSUSE 12.1

the PC from a 10.0.0/24 subnetwork and plugged it into a 10.218.0/24
network. The dhcpcd daemon now seems to be permanently stuck on its
old lease.

Is there some way of getting dhcpcd to re-initialize and try for a
new lease?
I don't support anything other than dhcpcd-5. It's been entirely
re-written from v3.
You could try stopping all dhcpcd process, then removing the .info
files and then restarting dhcpcd.
Personally I would suggest to SuSE to upgrade to dhcpcd-5.5.6
